Question

The weight of the box is 3/16 kg and weight of a bag is 2/4 kg.Find the total weight of both?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets get started.

Let us assume that the glass is filled with milk upto the volume of glass in the case of fully filled glass and the glass be filled upto half of it volume in the case of half filled.

Let the weight of glass be x kg and the weight of milk be y kg.

Now proceed as shown in the image.

We have multipied y with 1 in equation 1 as the milk is filled up to the fullest in the glass.

We have multipied y with 1/2 in equation 2 as the glass is half filled with milk.

Now, we have 2 equations and two unknown variables and hence the problem can be solved easily by substitution method.

So, we have the value of x = 1/4 kg= 1000 gm/4 = 250 gm.

So, the weight of the glass will be 250 gm.

Hope you find this solution helpful.

Cheers!!!

Answer 2

Answer:

11/16 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of box = 3/16 kg

weight of bag = 2/4 kg

total weight = weight of bag + weight of  box

total weight = 3/16+2/4

total weight = 3/16+8/16

total weight = 11/16 kg
